“Bloomsbury Group” Inspired Summer School with Rosie Parmley

Four Day Drawing & Painting Course

Friday 31st July - Monday 3rd August, 10-4pm £400 pp

Rosie will share her passion for all things Bloomsbury and the legendary painters Vanessa Bell, Duncan Grant and Roger Fry.

This course kicks off with a welcoming coffee and croissants at the Cabinet Rooms in Winchesters own Bloomsbury Cafe. With an engaging presentation Rosie tells the story of the notorious group and their creative journey, setting an historical context. The class then moves over to The Colour Factory studios.

In this small and friendly class you will be immersed in all the drawing and painting materials and processes used by the Bloomsbury group.

You will be drawing and painting with:- pencils, chalks, charcoal, inks, intense ink blocks and acrylics. Closely looking at the groups paintings and their techniques, Rosie will lead you step by step creating a lovely study from a still life in their style. With one-to-one support and lots of demonstrations you will come away with a sketch book full of art and paintings to take home with you.  Day four is a studio day for one to one support and working on a final painting/finishing off art work.

The course includes all materials, an A3 sketch book and refreshments. All you need to bring is your lunch daily. Suitable for all abilities.
